Brought Forward in my photostream. Probably my most favorite plane spotting photo I have ever shot. Shows the relationship of a spotter to his quarry.
This view does not exists anymore as planes now use runway 28C for landing, instead of 28R which this plane was landing on

Notes: Bresolin was an Italian painter and photographer. His father, also named Domenico, was a bricklayer. Domenico the son worked as a decorator and in 1841 enrolled at the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice. Here he studied with the architect Francesco Wucovich Lazzari (1791-1856), the painters Francesco Bagnara (1784-1866) and Tranquillo Orsi (1771-1845), the sculptor Luigi Zandomeneghi. Around 1845 he studied in Florence with the Hungarian landscape painter Károly Markó the Elder. During the same period he worked in Rome, where he showed his paintings in various exhibitions. Subsequently he continued working in Milan and in Venice as a landscape painter.
After 1850 he began to take photographs using the calotype process and became famous for the clarity of his positive prints of Venetian palaces and monuments. He was one of the last Venetian photographers to work with salt prints up until the late 1850s. Photos with his blindstamp are quite rare as he only used his own stamp 1854-55. His works became known mainly through Carlo Ponti (c. 1823-1893), the photographer and publisher of famous Venetian photographers such as Carlo Naya (1816-1882) and Antonio Perini (1830-1879).
In 1864 Bresolin gave up photography and began teaching landscape painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice. In the same year he transferred his photographic archive to Carlo Ponti. He had many pupils who later became famous painters, such as Guglielmo Ciardi, Giacomo Favretto, Alessandro Milesi and Luigi Nono. Domenico Bresolin died in Venice in 1899.

Everywhere, inside the house, outside in the garden - things with no value beyond being reminders of days and years forgotten.
Reaching the brushy Altiplano, we frequently encountered llamas, alpaca, sheep, and their herders. We seemed to be as much a curiosity to them as they were to us.
I was afraid that by observing objects with my eyes and trying to comprehend them with each of my other senses I might blind my soul altogether.

Taking advantage of some natural light. Sunny in Oregon today.
By total accident I lined the heel up with the edge of the chair perfectly. heh.
Really should have shot this again.
Random fact: These red shoes are my wedding shoes.
Yes, I'm aware that is odd. :) and no, I didn't wear the socks.
Leaving Dýrafjörður behind us, we headed for Borgarfjörður. The descent down this mountain was on a dirt road and was extremely steep. So far in our trip, we'd driven on some rough roads but nothing quite as steep as this.

ABOUT THE SERIES
------------------------------
In September 2011, my wife and I went to Iceland for a two week honeymoon. The trip was such an incredible experience. We started in Reykjavík and drove around the outside of the county counterclockwise. Although we made hotel reservations ahead of time, our day to day itinerary wasn't planned in advance so we could see/do whatever we felt like.
Iceland is such a diverse and amazing place. I've never seen such beauty, breathtaking landscapes, and an assortment of scenery anywhere else. One moment you're walking on a glacier and the next you're hiking through a lush landscape to a waterfall. Mid to late September seemed like the perfect time of year to go. There were no crowds at any of the sites, we had our pick of where to stay, and the weather was fantastic.
If you've never been to Iceland, photos (mine or anyone else's) don't really do it justice. It's somewhere you have to see and experience in person.
